Can anyone give me tips or refer me to a website on how to make teeth look realistic.

I am painting a portrait for someone and the portrait itself looks extremly realistic except for the teeth. Big Grin

any suggestions?

I couldn't find anything online to point you to, but can only offer the following tips...

Don't try too hard to make them look too realistic, this will only call attention to the mouth itself and that's not what the portrait should be about. Don't make them too white...and don't put too much emphasis on defining the spaces between them or painting them individually - stay away from any hard lines on the teeth or gums...softening the lines is key to keep the focus away from the mouth. Keep from painting the gums too pink or all one tone
